Weather Channel isn’t bad they just don’t speak in absolutes in the long range. Sort of like the NHC cone showing GOM, Florida and out to sea all on the table.

HWRF looks like it was about to make Dorian go thru a EWRC at the end of the run, eyewall had that look and wind field was beginning to spread out
 
18z GFS is running about 2 days ahead of legacy, but only 6 hours ahead of HWRF.

Also approaching Jax, the three are:
GFS 970
HWRF. 941
LEGACY 923
HWRF might be our middle zone....that's scary.
 
The way the center has jumped north several times today kind of reminds me of Irene when she was in the same location she was first suppose to hit extreme SW DR and Haiti and ended up going across PR and into the Bahamas.....the center relocated several times further north in the Antilles similar to what Dorian has done today...

If only we could get that curve....I don't think that's in our future, but can hope.
